OBJECTIVE To explore the effect and mechanism of Zexie tang （ZXT） on reducing lipid accumulation through network pharmacology， and compare the difference of traditional decoction versus formula granules. METHODS The active components and targets of ZXT were identified using TCMSP and SwissTargetPrediction databases. GeneCards， OMIM， DisGeNET and TTD databases were used to analyze the related targets of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease （NAFLD）； protein-protein interaction network model was constructed by String database；“ ZXT-NAFLD target-pathway” network diagram was constructed by using CytoScape software； target enrichment analysis was performed by using Metascape platform. Fat accumulation model of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells was established to observe the effects of traditional decoction and formula granules of ZXT on lipid accumulation of cells. RESULTS Alisol B， alisol C， 1-monolinolein and alisol B monoacetate were the key active components of ZXT in the treatment of NAFLD. The core targets included MDM2， MAPK1， PIK3CB， PRKCQ and MAPK14， etc. The core signaling pathways included endocrine resistance， insulin resistance and Th17 cell differentiation. Compared with model group， except for the Zexie formula granules group and Baizhu formula granules group， the absorbance values in all other administration groups were significantly decreased （P＜0.01）； the absorbance value of Baizhu traditional decoction group was significantly higher than that of ZXT traditional decoction group （P＜0.01）； the absorbance values of Zexie formula granule group and Baizhu formula granule group were significantly higher than that of ZXT formula granule group （P＜0.01）； the absorbance value of Zexie formula granule group was significantly higher than that of Zexie traditional decoction group （P＜0.01）； the absorbance value of Baizhu formula granule group was significantly higher than that of Baizhu traditional decoction group （P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS ZXT reduces lipid accumulation of human hepatocellular carcinoma cells through multiple components， multiple target and multiple pathways， and its traditional decoction and formula granules exhibit slightly different lipid-lowering effects.

To summarize the clinical experience of Professor LIU Jinmin in treatment for epilepsy. It is believed that main pathogenesis of epilepsy is yangming failure to close and vital activity loss control， so a therapeutic approach focused on restoring the closure of yangming and regaining vital activity was proposed for the treatment of epilepsy. For excess syndrome， the treatment focuses on draining excess and descending qi， promoting purgation and restoring spirit. When yangming dryness-heat predominates， the approach involves unblock the bowels and regulating the spirit， descending qi and reducing fire， with modified Chengqi Decoction （承气汤） as prescription； when yangming phlegm-fire predominates， the treatment focuses on clearing heat and resolving phlegm， calming mind and suppressing fright， with modified Qingxin Wendan Decoction （清心温胆汤） as prescription； when yangming blood stasis predominates， the approach involves breaking up blood stasis and promoting purgation， eliminating stasis and awakening the mind， with Taoren Chengqi Decoction （桃核承气汤） as prescription. For deficiency syndrome， the treatment emphasizes tonifying deficiency and raising qi， strengthening the stomach and nourishing the spirit. When center qi deficiency and sinking of clear qi of the nutrients from food， the approach involves replenishing and uplifting qi while nourishing vital activity， with modified Liujunzi Decoction （六君子汤） as prescription； when yin deficiency and fluid consumption， the treatment focuses on nourishing stomach and tonifying yin， promoting fluid production and calming the spirit， with modified Maimendong Decoction （麦门冬汤） combined with Yiwei Decoction （益胃汤） as prescriptions. In clinical situations of deficiency-excess complex， it is essential to distinguish the primary condition from the secondary， applying both supplementing and draining methods flexibly to achieve optimal treatment.

Objective To explore the prognostic value of hs-cTnⅠ in patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome(ACS)in emergency department.Methods A large-scale,prospective observa-tional study was conducted on totally 966 patients with suspected ACS admitted in Fuwai Hospi-tal from January 2017 to October 2020.Their baseline serum/plasma hs-cTnⅠ level was detected at admission,conventional treatment was performed,and relevant data were collected.Logistic regression analysis was used to predict the risk of primary and secondary endpoint events within 30 d by hs-TnⅠ concentration,and subgroup analysis was performed.Results Among the 966 patients,the time from chest pain to visit was 5.0(2.5,13.0)h,and 284 patients had primary end-point events within 30 d,including 283 cases of myocardial infarction(99.6％)at the first visit,1 case of recurrent myocardial infarction(0.4％),5 cases of cardiovascular death(1.8％),and 1 case of unplanned revascularization(0.4％).When hs-cTnⅠ was at the minimum detection limit of 2 ng/L,the incidence of adverse events was 5.8％,when the limit of 70 ng/L,the incidence was 49.2％,and when of 316 ng/L,the incidence reached 100％.The model could correctly classify 92.3％of the patients.Conclusion The hs-cTn sequence has a good predictive effect for the risk of short-term cardiovascular adverse events in Chinese population.

Mitochondria are the main site of energy metabolism in cardiomyocytes， and at the same time mediate apoptosis and immune response， so mitochondrial dysfunction is closely related to the development of heart failure. Combined with the pathogenesis of mitochondrial dysfunction and heart failure， it is proposed that the mitochondrial function is similar to "sweat pore - collaterals - zang and fu organs"， according to which the treatment of heart failure is based on the theory of "sweat pore - collaterals - zang and fu organs". It is believed that the core mechanism of heart failure is qi deficiency， and qi deficiency leads to the weakness of the sweat pore opening and closing， or even the sweat pore closure， then resulting in qi deficiency and blood stasis， collaterals stagnation fail to flourish， and qi， blood， and body fluids can not infiltrate and nourish zang-fu organs， so that the heart fail to be nourished， and the disease will develop. The treatment should be based on the method of boosting qi and opening sweat pore， using acridity to unblock the collaterals， and invigorating blood and draining water， with medicinal of boosting qi， invigorating blood， and draining water as treatment.

The research on the application of deep learning in survival and recurrence prediction, efficacy prediction, distant metastasis prediction, and complication prediction of non-small cell lung cancer has made some progress, and it shows a trend of multi-omics and multi-modal joint, but there are still shortcomings, which should be further explored in the future to strengthen model verification and solve practical problems in clinical practice.

ObjectiveTo explore the therapeutic effect and mechanism of the Danhe granules on hypercholesterolemia rats by observing the changes in the efficacy indicators and the levels of proteins related to the cholesterol metabolism pathway in the rats under the intervention of Danhe granules. MethodSD rats were randomly assigned to either the blank group or the model group based on their body weight. The blank group had normal chow diets， while the model group was fed high-fat diets for seven weeks. One week after the establishment of the model， the content of the serum total cholesterol （TC） in the model rats was detected. According to the TC value， the model group was further randomly divided into a control group， pravastatin sodium tablet group（4.02 mg·kg^-1）， Xuezhikang capsule group（0.12 g·kg^-1）， high-dose， middle-dose， and low-dose groups of Danhe granules（4.536， 2.268， 1.134 g·kg^-1）. After grouping the model groups， each treatment group received continuous oral gavage for six weeks， with weekly measurements of body weight and food intake （the difference between feed intake and feed surplus）. Six weeks later， the levels of serum TC， triglyceride （TG）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C）， and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C） were measured. The liver pathology and lipid droplet distribution were evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and oil red O staining， with scoring and calculation conducted. Rat liver tissue was collected， and western blot and immunohistochemistry （IHC） were used to detect the expression levels of cholesterol metabolism-related proteins namely phosphorylated adenosine 5'-monophosphate （AMP）-activated protein kinase （p-AMPK）， AMPK， 3-hydroxy-3-methyl glutaryl coenzyme A reductase （HMGCR）， low-density lipoprotein receptor （LDLR）， cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase （CYP7A1）， Acyl-coenzyme A： cholesterol acyltransferase 2 （ACAT2）， and apolipoprotein B （ApoB） in hypercholesterolemia rats. ResultCompared with the blank group， the model group showed a significantly higher level of serum TC （P<0.01）. The TG level had no significant change， and the HDL-C level was significantly decreased （P<0.05）. The liver index， steatosis score， total score of pathological state， and the positive area ratio of oil red O staining were significantly increased （P<0.01）， and the protein expression levels of p-AMPK， p-AMPK/AMPK， LDLR， and CYP7A1 were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， while the protein expression levels of AMPK， HMGCR， and ACAT2 were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the TC level in each dose group of Danhe granules was significantly decreased （P<0.05）， and the positive area ratio of oil red O staining in the pravastatin sodium tablet group and medium-dose group of Danhe granules was significantly decreased （P<0.05）. In each administration group， the protein expression levels of p-AMPK and p-AMPK/AMPK were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the levels of HMGCR and ACAT2 were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The ApoB level showed a downward trend. The CYP7A1 level in the pravastatin sodium tablet group and each dose group of Danhe granules was significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the LDLR level in the pravastatin sodium tablet group， Xuezhikang capsule group， and high-dose and medium-dose groups of Danhe granules was significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionDanhe granules can reduce serum TC levels and improve hepatic steatosis. It may activate AMPK， down-regulate the expression of HMGCR， and inhibit cholesterol synthesis. It can also up-regulate the expression of LDLR and CYP7A1， promote cholesterol uptake and excretion， down-regulate the expression of ACAT2 and ApoB， reduce cholesterol absorption and assembly of LDL and other lipoproteins， and thus play a role in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia.

Under the national policy background of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）registration review and approval reform， TCM preparations in medical institutions（hereinafter referred to as medical institution preparations） have human use experience， conform to the characteristics of TCM clinical practice， and have advantages in the research and development of innovative Chinese medicines. Therefore， the research and development mode based on clinical experience prescription-medical institution preparations-innovative Chinese medicines has attracted widespread attention from the industry. However， in the process of development and use of medical institution preparations， there are generally clinical problems that restrict their transformation into innovative Chinese medicines， resulting in a relatively weak collection basis of human use experience and insufficient clinical evidence for supporting the research and development of new TCM medicines. In this paper， on the basis of sorting out the supporting regulations and relevant technical requirements of human use experience， and analyzing the clinical problems restricting the transformation of medical institution preparations， it provides suggestions for medical institutions to carry out high-quality research on human use experience of preparations in the process of TCM clinical practice from the aspects of continuously exploring clinical value， improving the construction of information system， focusing on the TCM clinical practice and giving full play to the advantages of discipline cooperation. By realizing the whole life cycle management of medical institution preparations based on three-combination evaluation evidence system， we can promote the transformation of medical institution preparations into innovative Chinese medicines.

Mitophagy is one of the important targets for the prevention and treatment of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI). Moderate mitophagy can remove damaged mitochondria, inhibit excessive reactive oxygen species accumulation, and protect mitochondria from damage. However, excessive enhancement of mitophagy greatly reduces adenosine triphosphate production and energy supply for cell survival, and aggravates cell death. How dysfunctional mitochondria are selectively recognized and engulfed is related to the interaction of adaptors on the mitochondrial membrane, which mainly include phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN)-induced kinase 1/Parkin, hypoxia-inducible factor-1 α/Bcl-2 and adenovirus e1b19k Da interacting protein 3, FUN-14 domain containing protein 1 receptor-mediated mitophagy pathway and so on. In this review, the authors briefly summarize the main pathways currently studied on mitophagy and the relationship between mitophagy and MIRI, and incorporate and analyze research data on prevention and treatment of MIRI with Chinese medicine, thereby provide relevant theoretical basis and treatment ideas for clinical prevention of MIRI.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical effect of Yiqi Liangxue Shengji Formula （益气凉血生肌方， YLSF） on recurrence of angina pectoris and quality of life at eight weeks after perecutaneous coronary intervention （PCI）. MethodsEighty-two coronary artery disease （CAD） patients with qi deficiency and blood stasis and binding of stasis and heat syndrome who had underwent PCI were randomly divided into two groups with 41 patients each in the treatment group and the control group. Based on conventional western medicine after PCI， patients in the treatment group orally took YLSF granules while those in the control group were administered with placebo， one dose daily for 8 weeks. The recurrence rate of angina pectoris and readmission rate within eight weeks after PCI were recorded. Before and after treatment， total traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome score， Seattle Angina Questionnaire （SAQ） scores （physical limitation， angina stability， angina frequency， treatment satisfaction and disease perception）， and the SF-36 scores for quality of life （physical and mental health） were evaluated. The adverse reactions during medication in both groups were recorded. ResultsWithin eight weeks after PCI， the recurrence rate of angina pectoris in the treatment group （4/41， 9.76%） was significantly lower than that in the control group （11/41， 26.83%， P＜0.05）. The readmission rate in the treatment group was 2.44% （1/41）， while that in the control group was 12.20% （5/41）， with no significantly statistical difference （P＞0.05）. After treatment， total TCM syndrome score significantly decreased in both groups， while in terms of quality of life， the SAQ scores on domains of angina stability， angina frequency and disease perception as well as SF-36 total scores， physical health and mental health scores significantly increased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared between the two groups， total TCM syndrome score was significantly lower in the treatment group than the control group （P＜0.01）， while no significant differences were found in SAQ scores and SF-36 total， physical and mental health scores （P＞0.05）. No adverse reactions occurred in both groups during the treatment period. ConclusionYLSF can reduce the recurrence rate of angina pectoris within eight weeks after PCI for coronary artery disease， and can improve the TCM syndrome score， and have sound safety， with comparable effect to that of placebo in improving postoperative short-term quality of life.
